摘要
加拿大女作家玛格丽特·劳伦斯的文学创作以不同种族、文化的冲突、沟通和融合为主题.在其小说<潜水鸟>中,作者以真挚的情感、敏锐的洞察力和细腻的笔触刻画了在主流文化社会边缘挣扎的一位印地安女性形象,表达了作者重视"多元文化"的理念.本文拟从叙事视角、性格塑造、象征意蕴几方面简析小说的艺术特色.
Margaret Laurence, a renowned Canadian woman writer, deals most astutely with the theme of clashes, communication and assimilation between people of different races and cultures. In her superb short story The Loon , the author, with ardent passion and keen perception, creates a native Indian girl by the name of Piquette Tonnerre in an exquisite style. Piquette seeks to fit into the main currents of culture but is marginalized by the white dominated society. The story expresses the fundamental idea of 'multiculturalism' which has always been highlighted by the author in many of her major works. The present paper gives a tentative interpretation of the artistic features of the story in terms of first person participant point of view, characterization and symbolic significance.
